Topic: EF 24-70 f/4L IS & EF 35 f/2 IS (Read 63629 times)

As suspected the new Canon EF 24-70 f/4L IS will be announced. This lens should appears as a kit lens with the upcoming EOS 6D. The other lens isn’t a new 50mm at this time, it’s actually going to be a new EF 35 f/2 IS.Pricing will also be higher than the previously unconfirmed suggestions.

The 24-70mm f/4L IS baffles me a bit to be honest. I would have thought an updated 24-105mm f/4L IS with improved optics would be more enticing (not that it's optically poor by any stretch as it is now).

I don't know, just doesn't seem to fill any void in the current line up to me.

Ye I really dont see the point of the 24-70 F4 IS unless it offers much better quality than the 24-105 F4 IS, If it offers similar quality then why loose the extra 35mm of reach. The new IS wouldn't sway me toward it either. Odd decision by Canon again and bet its a small fortune at least £1100.
